I just bought a bunch of smoked sausage. We’ve made some Sausage with Beans and Rice (which is tasty) but I’m looking other recipes. Any suggestions?
Cut sausage on the diagonal and brown in a little oil, remove to a plate.
Add:
1 diced onion, 3 stalks of diced celery, 1 bell pepper (Holy Trinity)
Saute in the sausage drippings and remove.
Add a little butter and about 1/2 cup of flour and brown over med. heat (careful not to burn rue) Keep is loose by adding more oil or butter.
Add slowly chicken or fish stock and wisk. I use shrimp shells for my fish stock. Add Old Bay seasoning to taste and hot sauce to taste.
Add about half of a package of frozen non-breaded okra,
2 14oz. cans of diced tomato and all of the Holy Trinity and sausage and simmer 20 minutes.
Add 1 lb. of peeled shrimp, 1 lb of diced sturdy fish and 1 package of fresh oysters (optional)
Serve over white rice and enjoy! Don’t forget a basket of crackers and hot sauce on the side.
I made sausage sandwiches the other day with Italian sausage. Poached them until the water dried and then sauteed them with garlic, shallots, tomatoes and peppers. Sliced the sausage in half and put the pepper mix and sausage on a toasted hoagie roll with melted cheese. Simple and fast.
The Old settlers beans recipe that I posted has way more sugar in it than I would use.
Sausage and Cabbage
1 (12 to 16 oz) pkg. sausage link, sliced
1 small head cabbage, chopped
1 onion, chopped
1 can ro-tel style tomatoes
1 can diced tomatoes
In a large skillet, brown the sliced sausage. Add in the remaining ingredients and cover. Heat on med-high until cabbage has wilted to your taste. Stir occasionally.
Brown thin sliced sausage and serve with breakfast.
Same idea with bologna. Cut a piece of bologna into quarters and brown in a skillet.
If you like Sauerkraut...in my area many people bring Sauerkraut and Egg Noodle dishes to pot luck meals - most add Kielbasa (Smoked Sausage)-Yummy - Lots of different recipes online.
(this is a basic starting point recipe)

Fry Kielbasa chunks and incorporate into dish (for the overnight wait) before baking in casserole to warm the next day- can be served room temperature, which is great for pot lucks.
